Its graphic appearance, a consequence of its construction logic, makes it recognisable and punctuated by vertical and horizontal intersections; the interplay of full and empty spaces, of images that overlap and are filtered through their weave makes them vibrant, as if they were moving paintings.
The mirror is inserted inside a game of solid wood semicircles, worked by hand.
The door is supported by three concealed hinges and the opening is guaranteed by 4 magnets and two centerings for perfect alignment of the door.
Collection designed for Medulum by CARA \.DAVIDE.
